not only because president obama is right to most of them but bus he leads on all of them. i think he could have handleed politics and policies differently, but he has been decisive strong and consistent. important qualities in a president. his opponent is a self-described etch-a-sketch. the antithesis of leadership. i had no choice but to laugh when i hear people argue that mitt romney would be a better leader than president obama. that romney would better connect with the american people. middle class workers who deserve a fair wage and a promising job. students and their parents who not only strife for top-notch education but who hope for fighting chance to pay off their student loans women who believe they should have more say about their bodies and medical care than politicians. in sum, i've said it before. facts matter, science matters reason matters. mitt romney has shown an inability to respect all three. president obama has is an overwhelming and unquestioned choice to continue as president. that's my view. (vo) john fugelsang sees what happens. i like mitt romney
